Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 large grape leaves
8 ounces goat cheese
1 tablespoon mixed herbs (thyme, basil, rosemary, and/or parsley)
2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
Arugula, for a salad
8 slices Greek loaf bread
Marinated olives, as an accompaniment

Steps:

  • Mix the goat cheese, herbs, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Spread out the grape leaves, in sets of 2 overlapping pairs. Scoop 2 ounces (ice cream scoop works best) of goat cheese mixture, and place in the middle of the pair of grape leaves. Starting with 1 end, fold each side until goat cheese is covered, making a rectangular packet. Repeat with remaining leaves. Place stuffed leaves in a container and cover with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Heat a grill.
  • Using tongs, place the packets onto the hot grill. When marked, turn over, and mark on the other side. Grill until cheese is soft. When soft, remove from grill.
  • Place on a bed of arugula, and tear open the grape leaf. Brush 8 pieces of bread with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and grill both sides. Cut in half on a bias and serve with the goat cheese with the grilled bread and marinated olives.

I'm not a fan of goat cheese, but I loved these grape leaves. The flavors were perfectly balanced.

These were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try using a milder pepper next time.

These grape leaves were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using less olive oil next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my grape leaves turned out soggy. I think I'll try baking them instead of steaming them next time.

I had a hard time finding grape leaves, but I finally found them at a specialty grocery store. They were worth the effort, though - these grape leaves were amazing!

These were a bit too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used a different brand of goat cheese than the recipe called for.
